Please ELI5. Why would a company offer to buy shares of stock from individual investor after a merger?
I bought a few stocks of a promising company (in my view) about 6 years ago to test the waters. I decided the game wasn't for me because I still don't understand how a lot of things like puts and shorts work. I kept the stocks I bought and would …

SPCX: anyone else thinking short-term play on opening hype?
I think the $1.75T valuation is significantly overpriced long-term, but I'm not trying to hold it. Just ride the opening hype for a few hours on June 12. My concern: unlike Tesla's IPO (40% day-one pop) or Alibaba (38%), this could play out more like Facebook. Priced to perfection, flat …
